LTO Network was a hybrid blockchain project focused on digital identity, ownership records, and business workflows. Its design combined a public chain with a private layer. The project’s current documentation says the LTO Network is shutting down and directs holders to its migration to EQTY. This entry covers the legacy LTO network and token; EQTY is a separate successor asset.
Market data: CoinGecko’s former LTO Network page now redirects to its EQTY listing. Since EQTY is not the legacy LTO token, this page does not show a live LTO CoinGecko price table.
How the Legacy Network Worked
LTO’s architecture was intended to let organizations coordinate records and workflows privately while using a public blockchain for consensus and proofs. The private layer could hold or manage business data; the public layer supplied a shared record that parties could use to verify events without publishing all underlying information. Project materials emphasized identity and ownership use cases. These descriptions explain the network’s former design, not an active service guarantee.
Tokenomics and Historical Utility
LTO was historically used for transactions on the network and for staking or leasing arrangements tied to node participation. Those functions belong to the legacy LTO system. The official migration guide describes a 1:1 conversion to EQTY during a fixed swap window, but says that window has ended and that LTO can no longer be swapped or traded. The official pages cited here do not establish a reliable current circulating supply for LTO; EQTY’s supply and market data should not be presented as LTO figures.
Migration and Current Status
The project’s stated transition moved its focus from the former LTO Network to EQTY on Base. The migration guide identifies EQTY’s Base contract separately and marks the LTO swap period as closed. Anyone researching an old LTO balance should distinguish the chain and token they hold from EQTY and consult the project’s official documentation; the old LTO CoinGecko route is not a live LTO market listing.
